[QUOTE="RAYZORT, post: 30606, member: 1983"] Mr Jones, in response to your question: <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">quote:</font><HR>AGAIN , I ask the fellow that posted this. What ranges are you going to be shooting and what are you looking for your gun to do ?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> To clarify from my original post about hunting Deer and Elk in Idaho and Wyoming, I'll add that ranges will generally be 200-350 yards. Longer than that would be under ideal conditions. What do I want the gun to do: 1. Get a bullet out to these distances wth enough energy to kill what I aim at. 2. The rifle should be light enough to carry all day, yet not too light that the recoil is unmanageable. It's an interesting discussion trying to balance the two and look at all options for a single rifle. Is there a perfect gun, I doubt it, but I do beleive that a particular rifle of given design matched with a good all around caliber to cover most circumstances is achievable. Here's another scenario you might want to comment on, and was brought up by others, JR I believe. I have narrowed the caliber down to the 7mm Rem. Mag or the .300 Win. Mag. Would you be kind enough to offer your advice on these two and your preference? I appreciate your input [/QUOTE]
